I think that Kellen Rios from Blue Valley might make a splash at 130 this week. He looked really good at Eudora. I am expecting to see him up there in the mix

are those name in any certain order, if so 171 should be switched its to my knowledge that pollum placed ahead of hill from east. Watch out for nick mancuso at 112. 103 should be a great final so see some new freshman.

Jeff Lyons from BVNW will be at 171 also.

I don't think Geoff Wright at 125 can wrestle varsity until after break due to switching schools.
Kevin O'Grady is out until after break due to breaking a knuckle earlier in year. He plans on going 135 when he returns.

No order in list - just a list - I am not chief - just mark -

Jusin long at 160 should be included as he beat Perez twice this past weekend.

Transfer rules should not apply to BVSW as a new school, unless he was not in their district.

Yes, you are correct. He choose to transfere over to BVSW.

Will they eventually run out of directional names for Blue Valley schools?

Will they eventually run out of directional names for Blue Valley schools?

Any truth to the rumor that Cokely and Moeder will be skipping JCC and heading to Toshiba?

Wow if they are! I think a few other SJA kids could make noise too. I would bring little Cokeley and that Hawg kid.

That would be absolutely FALSE, and was never an option for Taylor. He will be wrestling with his TEAM and trying to bring home a team trophy for Saint James Academy and Coach Medina.

It would be nice if they were held on seperate dates, but thats not the case so its a non-issue, we will be at the Johnson County Classic.

Good to hear! I didnt think it would be the case. I appreciate SJ looking for best competition and would be nice if it was possible.

3 questions-
1. Will Beck be able to wrestle at 215? I hope so.

2. Since he injury defaulted does that count as a losss and will he be seeded under Mason?

3. Some big guys (215) know how to change levels and shoot. but others just tie up and push and block. When will stalling be called?

Yes a injury default counts as a loss, but that should have no bearing on if he will be seeded under Mason. Who won the last head to head that they actually wrestled? I would guess that is how they will be seeded.

Don't know the answer to the rest of your questions.

I think SMNW and BVW will be in the hunt/mix.

Expected 215 Seeds: In my opinion

1. Eric Mason - STA
2. Kyle Pacheco - GE
3. Evan Mitchell - BVNW
4. Christian VanMatre - SMS

I am not sure but I think Leo is taking a break this weekend. Best wishes on his recovery!

285 should be competitive: Just guessing

Kettler - SH
Walberg - STA
Callahan - MV
Elliott - BVNW
Jensen - SMS

BVW got depleted by graduation and BVSW opening. They only have 3 returning varsity wreslters available for this weekend. M Paxton 112, J Parise 119 and N Zayyad hwt, who only wrestled varsity from EKL on.
Kevin O'Grady will be back 1st meet in Jan.

On the positive side, several Freshmen and Sophmores are getting very valuable experience!!
